We study the density and spatial distribution of thermal Abelian monopoles in the deconfined phase of SU(2) pure gauge theory: they display non-trivial interactions with a well defined continuum limit. The Maximal Abelian Gauge (MAG) has been chosen to perform the Abelian projection. Questions related to the choice of the Abelian projection, as well as possible directions for future studies, are discussed.

Abstract

We study the density and spatial distribution of thermal Abelian monopoles in the deconfined phase of SU(2) pure gauge theory: they display non-trivial interactions with a well defined continuum limit. The Maximal Abelian Gauge (MAG) has been chosen to perform the Abelian projection. Questions related to the choice of the Abelian projection, as well as possible directions for future studies, are discussed.
